The Mumm Cuvée Napa Photo Finish

The awards were presented at The Mumm Cuvée Napa Photo Finish on April 6.

Photographs in the contest feature mustard in bloom in Napa County during the mustard season, from sometime in January through about the end of March each year (depending upon the whim of Mother Nature). The competition includes six categories: Professional, Innovative, Amateur, Aerial Balloon, Carneros, and Silverado Trail. Photos in the exhibit, which had 317 entries this year, will remain on display at Mumm Cuvée Napa through Friday, May 3. For information about the exhibit, call Mumm Cuvée Napa at 707.942.3434.

 

 

About the Mustard Festival

In addition to The Mumm Cuvée Napa Photo Finish, the Napa Valley Mustard Festival produces a series of events, which includes a Visual Arts Competition, World Wide Mustard Competition, Napa Valley Chef Competitions, and a number of food, wine and art events, located at a variety of venues throughout Napa Valley. These events take place during the mustard season, when mustard, wildflowers, and fruit trees cover the valley with a brilliant array of color.
